How Many Buddhas


How many Buddhas are there?




The Buddha realized that that he was not the first to become a Buddha. "There have been many Buddhas before me and will be many Buddhas in the future," The Buddha recalled to his disciples. "All living beings have the Buddha nature and can become Buddhas." For this reason, he taught the way to Buddhahood.

There are many Buddhas. Buddha can mean the historical Buddha. Or Buddha can mean one who has achieved enlightenment.
